Improving Wind Speed Forecasting for Urban Air Mobility Using Coupled Simulations

Advances in Meteorology, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Hazardous weather, turbulence, wind, and thermals pose a ubiquitous challenge to Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) and electric‐Vertical Take‐Off and Landing (e‐VTOL) aircrafts, and the safe integration of UAS into urban area requires accurate high‐granularity wind data especially during landing and takeoff phases.

Operational Considerations regarding On‐Demand Air Mobility: A Literature Review and Research Challenges

Journal of Advanced Transportation, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
The idea and development of on‐demand air mobility (ODAM) services are revolutionizing our urban/regional transportation sector by exploring the third dimension: vertical airspace. The fundamental concept of on‐demand air taxi operations is not new, but advances in aircraft design and battery/engine technology plus massive problems with congestion and ...

Addressing Complexity in System of Systems With GraphRAG: An AI‐Driven Framework for Dynamic Data Integration

Systems Engineering, Volume 29, Issue 2, Page 150-168, March 2026.
ABSTRACT System of Systems (SoS) environments are inherently complex, involving numerous operationally and managerially independent component systems with hidden interdependencies and frequent interactions based on unstructured data. In this paper, we propose using graphical Retrieval‐Augmented Generation (GraphRAG), a tool that combines large language
